Chris , on my 2000 , the swingarm mounting plate has 2 holes in it spaced about 2" apart . What I did was to tap these 2 holes to 1/2" - 13 thread. Then I made 2 alum . blocks , 4" x 2" x 1 1/2" thick with 2 counterbored holes for 1/2" allen head cap screws in it to line up with the 2 holes in the swingarm plate . Then I drilled and tapped 2 , 3/8 " - 16 holes in the block to bolt the tonge jacks to . The reason I had to make them 1 1/2" thick is to space the tonge jacks out far enough to clear the swingarm and it's mounting bolts . It all sounds complicated but it is realy simple . So now I can bolt these blocks on each side of the swingarm mounting plates , then bolt the 2 tonge jacks to the each block and crank the whole back of the bike right up in the air . Of course when using them to just support the rear section when spliting the frame , you wouldn't have the whole weight of the bike on the tonge jacks , just the weight of the rear section , trans, and bell housiing . I think they are going to work slicker than **** .
